Raspberry Pi Devastator Robot #1

From the creator

Raspberry Pi Zero W robot constructed using a DFRobot Devastator Tank Mobile Robot Platform (Metal DC Gear Motor) and an L298N motor controller. The Devastator Robot Platform can be purchased on Amazon.com here: http://amzn.to/2zkEKvq You can find more information on the robot platform here: https://www.dfrobot.com/product-1477.html The code and motor controller sections of this video refer back to content that I covered in “Raspspberry Pi Robotics #3: Keyboard Control”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XvOONPSoglY You can find the wiring diagram on this ExplainingComputers.com page: http://www.explainingcomputers.com/rasp_pi_robotics.html The Python code used to control the robot is also here: http://www.explainingcomputers.com/sample_code/key_robot.py Note that, because the code uses curses to access the keyboard, it must either be run from a terminal, or you must make the terminal window active after executing the code (ie click on the terminal window to give it the focus). You can also control the robot from another computer using SSH as I demonstrate in “Raspberry Pi Robotics #4: SSH Network Control”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z5_8Va8QxnY You may also be interested in this video on using Raspberry Pi GPIO inputs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NAl-ULEattw More videos on the Raspberry Pi, robotics, AI and other computing-related topics can be found at: http://www.youtube.com/explainingcomputers You may also like my ExplainingTheFuture channel at: http://w
